4 Stfange WEDDING.

A woman Who was well known in the
demimonde, both IN Paris and the pro-
vinces, took fancy TO man called the
cham pion skeleton" who was exhibit
ing himself with giant IN local fair.
The marriage ceremony was of the first
class order. The '1atomy" and his bride
came out in gorgeous appeared, and were
accom- panied TO the altar by all the
mountebanks or the fair, including the
giant, the lovely Cireassiane, the mana
ger of the WaZworks, and the ''ar6isteS''
of the various itenerant temples of Thea
pis and Thalia. The bride, an interest
ing woman "a years old, was given away
by her quonda1n protector, perso cage
with princely title and plethOric zr-e.
He it was who paid the reckonlngs 70 the
brides toilet, the faultless evening Tit
of lavender kids of the 'champio ie-
tom" the marriage ceremony, he
wedding breakfast. The church as
filled with flowers; crimson carpet was
spread, and rice was thrown by admiring
mountebanks along the whole route of
the bridal procession. In the evening
after the happy pair had departed for
their honeymoon, there was a anquet at
which fifty salIimbauques sat down. This
was succeeded by ball, whica was unique
of its kind, the brides form=r protector
having given orders that no Expense was
to be spared in order to celebrate the
aus picious occasion in a BETTING man
ner.

the promoters of the Manchester Canal.
But after all it was the name they paid
for; purely professional advice, IN more
elaborate detail, could have been pur-
chased for fraction of the sum men
toned, and they doubtless had such al
ready in abundance. They wanted to
have their views backed up by a name
that would impress the public and estab-
lish public confidence in the enterprise,
and encourage the public to invest that
money without which the scheme could
not succeed. It is an every day method
in England, and 1t is the usual way in
which the dukes and other titled person
ages there are made generally useful.
And it Is after all legitimate procedure
when the scheme is an honest one, as
this one was, and Mr.. Eads undoubtedly
gave the same opinion he would have ex-
pressed IL his own country for a much
smaller fee. The only difference was that
that opinion was more valuable in Eng
land than in America. The investing
class of EngIishmen are accustomed to
the worship Of name or title, even TO the
extent of risking their fortunes In any
project that has c sufficient number of
coronets on its board; while the more
cautious American investor Is apt to ex-
anime the matter for himself and gamble
upon his own Judgment in such matters,
rather than upon the opinion of some
one else, no matter how high the personal
or professional standing of the other

that little grave for his dead gal, Jake
struck the biggest lead ever struck in this
county.
"The parson who saw the CLEAN O. gold
in the gravel sail somethin' about it's
bein' natures sermon on Maggie, Or IA
lures tribute, or somethin' like that, and
Jake kept on diggin' till the grave was
done. Then we lowered her into it,
covered her with pine branches, and then
Jake filled the grave up with dirt you
could see the gold gleamin' in at every
shovelful.
'That big house up yonder on the bluff,
with the towers and coopeios, verandCs
and all them sort o. things, belongs to
Jake. It's on the same place where his
old shanty used to stand. But folks say
that pay gravel, as rich as it made him,
has never paid Jake Holt for the loss by
which he struck it."

Timely Hints on Diarrhea
Boston Medical Journal.

In diarrhea occurring suddenly and in
person previously in good health, the
first thing to do, unless vomiting pre-
vents, is to take cathartic and by that
means clear out the intestinal canal
which in such cases almost always con-
tains some irritant matter, such as lndi-
gested food, etc. Castor oil is one of the
best agents to employ for that purpose.
That it is a loathsome remedy none can
dispute. Those people to whom it is
most abhorrent can generally take it
easily if they will allow druggist to pre-
pare it for them. In glass of soda
water with lemon syrup it can scarcely
be tasted. For those who will not take
castor oil, Rochelle powder or dose of
magnesia is advised. When the oil is
chosen the dose should be one ounce,
that is, two tables poOnfuls. To that
quantity have the druggist add twenty
five drops of laudanum. After taking
this mixture go home if you can, and lie
down for few hours a least. The "star-
walton treatment must follow. Do not
indulge in food for some hours, and only
4 little milk and lime-water. Above all
things let brandy and other stimulanos
ntirely alone. If thirsty, drink very
sparingly of water, and soda water if a
siphen of it can be obtained. It would
be even better to forego water entirely
and used cracked ice. Small bits of ice
being allowed to melt in the mouth, or
swallowed when reduced to the size OF
peas, relieve and thirst and add much
to the comfort of the patient. When
nausea is suffered from and there is
danger of vomiting then ice only-no
water-should be allowed.
A person who has been threatened with
an attack of diarrhea should confne
himself to liquid foods, for two or three
days at least and those known to be easy
of digestion should be selected. When
all trace of the diarrhea has disappeared
then solids may be INDUCED, but only
sparingly at first.
In nine cases of diarrhea or dysentery
out of ten, If the treatment advised is
EN- ployed in the beginning of the attack
other medicine will be needed. Years
ago the writer was for long time in
the South, in district where the worst
form of dyseneery prevailed. The oil
and ladaunum mixture was Tho first
given in all cases where patients could
keep it on their stomachs." AS a ruls,
no subsequent medical treatment was
needed and very large proportion of
the patients mace rapid recovery under
a restricted diet.
In diarrhea, as in very many other dis
eases, absolutely the majority of people
at once when an attack is coming on turn
to the brandy bottle for relief, and cherry
brandy is considered quite the remedy.
1 is certainly the last thing to be en-
ployed, for it is no more suited to diar-
rhea in the early stage at least, than it is
for an eye water ia sore eyes.

or License System.
CINoINNATI, Sept. 14.-The National
Distillers Protective association to-day
resolved to make collection of $4,000
immediately from wholesale dealers and
distillers for use in Tennessee. A long
report from the committee or resolutions
was adopted which stated it is the first
duty of the association 80 use its highest
effort for correct education. Public
opinion on the subject of the liquor trade
IN its relation so individual, state and
society. The association is opposed to
prohibition, general or local, because
they believe it to be wrong in principle,
impossible of enforcement and pro-
motive of the worst forms of deceit and
hypocrisy. 1t endorses the tax or license
system and favors state enact
ments imposing reasonable license
that will not amount to prohibit
ton. It deprecates the efforts of
men IN high public positions to drag the
wine and spirit business into the arena
of politics. 1t says that the triumphs of
the liquor cause in Michigan and Texas
has shown that they can best resist the
attacks of the enemies by open discus
sion and appeals to the common sense of
American manhood.

A STREET ARABS CHARITY.
How Boy With a Big Heart Gave His Mite to
Cripple.
BROOKLYN Eagle.

~ Nii8piC.
Brooklyn Eagle
A poor little crippled lad who with
great difficulty supported himself on
crutches while he played flute in notes
scarcely audible amid the din and chatter
of the street, stood yesterday afternoon
praying for charity on the sidewalk of
Fourteenth street near Sixth avenue, says
The Brooklyn Eagle. No one seemed to
notice him, and his face was
wan and pinched. He evil
IDENTIFY was suffering from hunger, and
the wearied, hopeless expression Of his
face showed that he had lost all hope.
Net one of rhe endless stream of shop
pers and other passers-by seemed so
much as olook at him.
A few feet behind, in the middle of the
street, little ragged boy was logging
in and out among the cabs and carts
playing with ball. He looked the typi-
cal street arab. Suddenly he stopped
short and stood watching the poor little
musician. For few moments he hest
tated, then, with smile he put his hand
in his pocket and took something out,
and again began throwing his ball up in
the air and catching is as before. Once
he missed the ball and it rolled over to
where the little cripple was standing.
The street arab ran after it, but when
he reached it instead of picking it up he
looked furtively around to see that he
was pnobserved. Then he whispered to
the little cripple, and hurriedly dropped
something into his pocket. In another
moment he had picked up his ball and
was eff around the corner as fast as his
legs could cary him.
The cripple put his hanl in his pocket
and drew from it three pennies. Had the
lad who was running away to escape be-
ing thanked seen the look of amazed
gratitude which spread over the cripple's
face he would have been more than re-
warded.
